I’m autistic and I’ve always felt I had a certain gullibility. If I’m reading an article, and an argument sounds rational. I’m more likely to fall for it. Even if it contains a ton of bad premises. I’d like to think as I’ve gotten older and more mature, these kinds of things work less on me. But honestly I’m not sure.
I can’t say if I’m autistic or not but I hate reading news from sources I know to be untrustworthy because I still find myself thinking “this sounds correct” until I finish reading and remember it’s 99% bs
